Henry's POV
"Ahoy!" I yelled as Mia and I walked onto Hook's ship. He is the only one that can help me get to Emma. "Is anyone here?" I asked. "Careful miss, boy, no one steps aboard the Jolly Roger without an invitation from its captain first," Hook told me and Mia.

"Are you going to make me walk the plank?" I asked. Mia hit me in the side. "Don't give him suggestions," she whispered. "Well aren't you a smart lass, as for you boy, it depends on why you are here," Hook said.

"I need a ship to take me to the bottom of the sea," I said. "He means, we need a ship to take us to the bottom of the sea," Mia glared at me. Oops.

"Those are treacherous waters, there must be something of great value there to be worth taking the risk," Hook told me.

"Someone, her name is Emma, she's my mom and she was put there by the queen," I told him. "Well then I'm sorry for the both of you, even if I wanted to I couldn't help you," Hook sighed.

"Why? You're the captain can't you take your ship wherever you want?" I asked. "Henry- he's not the capt-," Mia started. "Haha, a captain. Is that who he says he is? I thought I told you to be done swabbing the decks when I returned," A man said.

"Blackbeard," Mia spat. Her eyes filled with hatred. "I'm sorry Mr. Blackbeard," Hook said. "Wait- he's the captain?" I asked. "Indeed, unless deckhand Hook wants to keep playing pretend," Blackbeard smirked.

"What do you say Hook? Beat me and the Jolly Roger is yours. Or are you still a one-handed coward?" Blackbeard asked. Hook turned around and started to clean the floors. "What are you doing?" Mia and I yelled at him.

"Stand up to him. You can beat him," I said. "I'm afraid you don't know me very well. I'm sorry, I can't help you," Hook said as he continued to scrub the floors.

"Hook, you get your lazy butt up right this instant or I will force you up right now!" Mia threatened. Hook ignored her and Mia's face went red.

"Then I'll have to help you," Mia said as she picked up a sword. I picked up one too. "I'll help too," I said.

I cut a rope next to me and a sail fell on Blackbeard. Mia ran up and Blackbeard threw the sail off of him. They went into a full on sword battle. "You think that you, a little girl, can beat me? Well think again," Blackbeard said.

I came up and it was two against one. Mia jumped over Blackbeard's swing and landed on his sword. He fell back and I put my sword up against his throat. "I think this ship is ours now," I whispered. I took a crate that was next to me and smashed it against Blackbeard's head. He was instantly knocked out.

"What are you doing?" Hook asked. "Trying to get you, your ship back," I answered. "Come on, let's dump Blackbeard and go," Mia said. "You think it's that easy? I can't sail the Jolly Roger alone!" Hook told us.

"I can help," I said. "How do you know how to sail a ship?" Hook asked. "I had a great teacher- You," I smiled. We started to sail and after a while Mia yelled, "Look! We found it!"

Hook looked threw his telescope. "There's a black guard," he said with a look of fear. "Only one. We can take him out," I said. "Well perhaps you haven't noticed but I'm a deck hand not a soldier," Hook complained.

"Then maybe we don't need to fight," Mia said. We both looked at her confused. "I have a plan," she told us. Let's just say, her plan was perfect.

That's how we ended up with Mia and I with bags over our heads and Hook bringing us inside the castle. "I'm here on official business for the queen, delivering two dangerous prisoners from the kingdom of Kashyyyk," Hook said.
